Fatally Shot by His Father-in-Law.

WIsCAssET. Me-, Feb. 18.-Wilson B. Graves
was shot, last night while trying to effect an
entrance into w. n. Fl. Clark's house. Graves
was Clark's son-ia-law. Owing to his intern
perate habits his wife obtained divorce and
returned to her fathers home to live. Graves
frequently forced an entrance to the house and
abused his former wife. who generally had
to call upon her father to protect
her from violence, Last night Clark heard
some one trying to break in the door. He
opened a window and warned the intruder
away, and finally fired in the air, but failed to
brighten the man away. He then fired and
wounded him. He claims that he did not know
it was Graves. When he found that he had
wounded him he took him in and gave him the
best of care, but the physicians say the wound
is fatal.
